And I’m looking forward to visiting the pop-up shop from Wear Lemonade in Paris, where I will be for a few days at the end of the month. One of the perks of being back on France, two hours on a train and I’m in Paris.Et j’ai hâte de pouvoir faire un tour à la boutique pop-up de Wear Lemonade à Paris, où je vais passer quelques jours à la fin du mois. Un des avantages d’être rentrée en France, deux heures de train et je suis à Paris.

The knitting these days is as confusing as the weather. Seriously these last two weeks in Montreal have been insane. Hot, then brutally cold, then mild and humid, then cool and rainy, then cold again, and now we’re supposed to have a summer spell in the next few days, up to 30° Celsius. It was 4° Celsius last Friday morning, and half of the family has a cold. I took the mittens out and now realize I probably started storing my summer sandals too quickly.

So on the knitting side, it’s been the same confusion. i just finished a summer top, which I packed thinking I would not wear it until next year; it turns out I actually might be able to wear it this week-end. I also finished a Vogue Knitting sweater from the Pre-Fall 2013 edition, a no-sleeve tunic with a big rounded collar, the kind of schizophrenic sweater that leaves your arms freezing cold and your neck boiling hot. And I started a neck warmer in bulky warm wool because hey, it’s been pretty cold walking around in the autumn wind. It’s all over the place.
Summer, autumn, winter, up and down, up and down the thermometer goes and I still have a cotton lacy sweater to finish, with sleeves. Which is probably the best transition piece, except there are no transitions here. It’s a bit crazy, but hey, at least it’s not snowing yet, so I cannot complain too much (and my heart goes to the folks in Calgary who had their first snow on September 8 – ouch). Just upping my vitamins intake to make sure I don’t get too sick on this crazy meteorological roundabout. I still have time to get started on my winter knitting.

Pictures in a following post. Just a preview of my neck warmer and the warm colors of the yarn (Mountain Fusion Teton, Summer colorway).
